This one sounds interesting! I'll give it a listen.
Speaking of Platform teams, I'm one of the co-founders of WunderGraph(https://wundergraph.com/) and we're working on a platform right now for API Integration. Are you open to any guests from a early startup?
If there's ever a time to ask such a question, it might be this thread.
Can I get some brutally honest feedback on a podcast I ran for 2 years (100+ episodes at once per week)) at https://runninginproduction.com/? It's a podcast focused on chatting with developers around how they build and deploy their web apps. It mostly focuses on the "why", tech stack choices, libraries, workflows, etc..
In my mind I thought it was a good idea but it got so little listeners that I had to abort recording new episodes due to burn out since there was no path forward to ever sustain it by outsourcing the burn out inducing parts. I still think it's a good idea but I wonder where I went wrong.
I tried everything I could think of. Guest variety from solo devs to bigger companies like Mux and Dropbox, audio editing to ensure the highest quality I could get for a remote guest<->host podcast with new guests having assorted mic qualities, moving a lot of "ums" and other fluff but not over editing things to make it unnatural, tags to quickly find tech stacks you care about and a ton of clickable timestamps with a summary of each show that's skimmable in seconds and tons of reference links.
On paper it feels like I did everything I could do to make things "good", but in practice after 100 episodes I had like 200-300 listens per episode which made it no longer viable to continue doing since each episode was about 6 hours of end to end time (finding a guest, editing it, show notes, etc.).
Hey, great list of awesome podcasts. I’m the host of Software Engineering Unlocked https://www.se-unlocked.com.
The episodes focus on the experience of my guests with software engineering practices such as testing, or code review, their journey to advance their career and often also on how developers build their successful business.
Would love if you give it a listen and see if you like my show.
